  • Dimensional Analysis
    A method to ensure equations are dimensionally consistent by comparing units on both sides.
  • Units
    Standardized quantities used to measure and express physical properties.
  • Dimensional Consistency
    Condition where units on both sides of an equation match, ensuring validity.
  • Velocity
    A vector quantity representing speed with direction, measured in meters per second.
  • Distance
    A scalar quantity representing the interval between two points, measured in meters.
  • Force
    An interaction that changes the motion of an object, measured in newtons.
  • Hooke's Law
    A principle stating that the force needed to extend a spring is proportional to the distance.
